Overview
Sea buckthorn is a fast, silver leaved shrub that fixes nitrogen, laughs at drought and salt, and makes a thorny barrier nothing walks through.
Origin & History
Native from northern Europe across Siberia to China, and planted in prairie shelterbelts since the 1930s.
Fruit & Uses
Female plants carry dense clusters of bright orange, very tart berries high in vitamin C, used for juice. A seedling row runs about half male and half female. It suckers, so give it room.
Growth Habit
Upright, thorny, suckering shrub, usually 8 to 12 ft tall and wide. Needs full sun.
Spacing
Plant 4 to 6 ft apart in the row for a hedge or shelterbelt. A bundle of 25 covers 100 to 150 ft of row.
Pollination
Wind-pollinated, with separate male and female plants. One male pollenizes several females nearby.
Cold hardiness
We rate sea buckthorn to zone 2, winters to -50°F.
How wholesale orders work
- Bundles can't be split. Sizes under 3 ft. come 25 to a bundle, 3 ft. and taller come 20 to a bundle.
- Price breaks count every Farm & Ranch bundle in your cart, any mix of plants. 4 bundles, 12 bundles and 24 bundles each drop the price on all of them. The discount shows up in your cart on its own.
- Add to your order any time before it ships. Same shipping address, and the bundles count together toward the next price break.
- No cancellations after February 1. Cancel part of an order before then and the rest is priced at the break it still earns.
- If we come up short on a plant, you keep the price break you paid for and we refund the bundles we couldn't send.
- Our dead plant guarantee covers these the same as everything else we sell. A plant that never leafs out its first season gets a credit code for what you paid for it plus its share of the shipping. We can't break a bundle, so credit goes toward a future order, not loose replacement plants.

Shipping restrictions: We cannot ship sea buckthorn to Maine, where it is on the state's list of invasive plants that can't be sold or brought in. Check your own state and county list before planting.
